Two-dimensional nonlinear dynamics of beam–plasma instability

Abstract: Numerical solutions for equations of weak turbulence theory that describe the beam-plasma interaction are obtained in two dimensions (2D). The selfconsistent theory governs quasilinear processes as well as nonlinear decay and scattering processes. It is found that the Langmuir turbulence scatters into a quasi-circular ring spectrum in 2D wave number space, accompanied by quasiisotropic heating of the electrons. When projected onto the one-dimensional (1D) space, 2D Langmuir turbulence spectrum appears as an in… Show more

“…Figure 1 shows the time evolution of electron velocity distribution function by plotting F e in 2D velocity space at different time steps corresponding to ω pe t = 500, 1000, 2000, 5000, 10 4 , 1.5 × 10 4 , and 2 × 10 4 . The lefthand panels depict solutions with only collisions; the middle panels correspond to the self-consistent solution without collisional effects, as in the type III beam case (Ziebell et al 2008); and the righthand panels show solutions that contain both collisional effects and self-consistent Langmuir wave dynamics. As the lefthand panels show, the collisional relaxation of the beam leads to the systematic energy losses and isotropization of the beam.…”

“…We considered the influence of Coulomb collisions and the self-consistent collective effects in the electron beam-plasma interaction problem in 2D velocity space. In the past, the present authors investigated the electron-Langmuir wave collective dynamics, which is relevant to the type III burst electrons, by ignoring the effects of Coulomb collisions (Ziebell et al 2008). On the other hand, early works on solar X-ray emission ignored the collective dynamics and only considered collisional dynamics.…”
